Condolences
The family of Onalee Lynell Dickman has received the following condolences.
To Onalee's Family,
Onalee and I were part of a group of friends clear back in high school, and even though we haven't been in touch for nearly 50 years, I was shocked to read of her passing in the Spring Valley Tribune. Onalee was a special person and a genuine friend, and my thoughts and prayers are with you as you pass through the coming days and weeks.
Dear Don, we are so sorry to hear of Onalee's death. May the Lord Bless you and keep you strong during this time of sadness. Your fond memories of the good time's together will sustain you in the days ahead.
I will always remember the good times we all had together when we worked at Olmsted Federal. (Some, a little crazy!) We were a pretty close knit group. She will be missed.
Don, we are very sorry for your loss. She will be truly missed.
Don
Onalee was really a special person. I am very sorry for your loss. Hang on to your memories that you can forever cherish.

Don, we are so sorry to hear of Onalee's passing. We both worked with her at Olmsted Federal. Scott was in the loan department and worked directly with her and I worked in the insurance agency that Mr. Gilk owned. I will
always remember Onalee as a lovely wisp of beauty and fun. I will never forget her laugh and her gentle demeanor. The world is certainly much darker with her lovely light no longer here. May God comfort you in your loss.
To Onalee's family,
So sorry to hear of her passing. She was one of my babysitters when I was a small girl. I remember spending long hours on the farm playing with her and Curtis and the other kids from the 500 club.
I remember when I had 5 surgeries in NY and she had brain surgery at about the same time, she was worried about me because I was alone and I was worried about her because it was brain surgery.
Even though we haven't seen each other for many years, I will always remember her from when we were kids.

Onalee was the best friend anyone could every have. I will always have fond memories of all the great times we had together, especially our trips up North fishing, the years we worked together at Olmsted Federal, and all the parties we attended. She was always so much fun to be with. I am going to miss her a lot.
Don: We are soooo sorry to hear of Onalee passing. We never know when GOD Will call us home. We are soo glad we got to see you at Sturgis this year. God's plans are perfect, but not what I would like.
Don, take care of yourself. So glad you had the chance to travel togethere in their RV.
